Emergence of a subfamily of xylanase inhibitors within glycoside hydrolase family 18 [PDF]
The xylanase inhibitor protein I (XIP‐I), recently identified in wheat, inhibits xylanases belonging to glycoside hydrolase families 10 (GH10) and 11 (GH11). Sequence and structural similarities indicate that XIP‐I is related to chitinases of family GH18, despite its lack of enzymatic activity.

High resolution crystal structure of the Endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidase responsible for the deglycosylation of hypocrea jecorina cellulases [PDF]
Endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidases (ENGases) hydrolyze the glycosidic linkage between the two N-acetylglucosamine units that make up the chitobiose core of N-glycans. The endo-N-acetyl-beta-D-glucosaminidases classified into glycoside hydrolase family

Allylic Carbocyclic Inhibitors Covalently Bind Glycoside Hydrolases
Allylic cyclitols were investigated as covalent inhibitors of glycoside hydrolases by chemical, enzymatic, proteomic, and computational methods. This approach was inspired by the C7 cyclitol natural product streptol glucoside, which features a potential carbohydrate leaving group in the 4-position (carbohydrate numbering).

Sugar-rich food sources are essential for sandflies to meet their energy demands, achieving more prolonged survival. The digestion of carbohydrates from food is mainly realized by glycoside hydrolases (GH). To identify genes coding for α-glycosidases and

Discovery of Kasugamycin as a Potent Inhibitor of Glycoside Hydrolase Family 18 Chitinases [PDF]
Kasugamycin, a well-known aminoglycoside antibiotic, has been used widely in agriculture and medicine to combat microbial pathogens by binding the ribosome to inhibit translation. Here, kasugamycin was discovered to be a competitive inhibitor of glycoside hydrolase family 18 (GH18) chitinases from three different organisms (bacterium, insect and human).
